Dolly Parton, known for her unique voice with its incredibly strong vibrato, has been dazzling audiences since before some of us can even remember. As one of country’s most honored female performers of all time, we’re honored to present you with a few tidbits you probably didn’t know about the Gold, Platinum, and Multi-Platinum award winner.
